Blo-Karting

Blo-Karting (like go-karting but wind powered) provides a unique year round experience in beach adventure and Jersey's flat, sandy bays provide the perfect location for it. Fun for individuals, families and larger groups of friends, Blo-Karting is easy to learn and suitable for all ages and abilities.

On an island with a diverse coastline, coastal traversing is the ideal way to discover an alternative Jersey. Explore the many caves, rock formations, natural pools and secret hidden beaches while clambering over rocks and swimming across gullies in the care of experienced professionals.

Jersey's hundreds of miles of coastal roads and country lanes make it the perfect destination for cycling enthusiasts of all ages. So much so that the island now has a network of ‘green lanes' with a speed limit of 15 mph as well as a number of dedicated cycle routes. Jersey Tourism has devised a selection of recommended cycling itineraries to showcase the island's natural beauty. Please visit: www.jersey.com/cycling

The opportunities for shore fishing in Jersey are endless, and visiting anglers discover a wealth of marine life in the island's harbours and breakwaters, including black bream, mullet and conger. For the more adventurous, inshore waters can be fished for bass, bream, rays, turbot and brill from one of the many charter boats available. And the reservoirs at Val de la Mare and Queen's Valley offer fly fishing for trout from April to October, while coarse anglers can fish at Dannemarche and Millbrook reservoirs from June to March.

Aviation enthusiasts can take to the air for a trial lesson with the Jersey Aero Club under the tutelage of an experienced instructor. Alternatively, if you prefer to watch rather than participate, the annual International Air Display takes place in September and forms part of the Battle of Britain fundraising week.

One of the fastest growing watersports in the world, Stand Up Paddle Boarding adds a whole new dimension to riding waves, or just exploring our great coastline.

With a big fitness benefit, Paddle Boarding has plenty of people learning a whole new way to play in the ocean. Stand Up Paddle Boarding offers a major ‘all-body’ workout which is low impact and a lot of fun.

Jersey boasts some of the most exhilarating surfing in Europe in the renowned St Ouen's Bay, as well as Grève de Lecq, Plémont and St Brelade's Bay. Jersey is a fantastic location in which to learn to surf or body-board boasting some of the most consistent waves in the UK.

Splash Surf Centre - The Splash Surf Centre operates from the iconic Splash surf ‘shak’ which has been at the heart of Jersey surfing and the venue for international competitions since the early 1960’s.
